All done. It took a little less than 3.5 hours.
I installed 1" thick aluminum spacers on top of the strut assemblies. The only detour was that I had to grind the original studs down about 4 or 5mm so they would not protrude above the 1"spacer, but I had read about that being an issue with the spacers meant for a 1.5" lift, so I wasn't completely caught off-guard. That and I had to turn the struts 180°. And I had to drop the sway bar.
I went for a 2" lift, looks like I got that maybe a tad more. Will measure on more level ground tomorrow am. ETA it is 2". Perfect.
Best $60 I have spent in a while.
Need to get it aligned.
